How does a Lens Refract Light? Different Lenses refract light in different ways. First‚ we will look at a double convex lens. Several light rays will approach the convex lens in a parallel manner. After they approach the lens‚ each ray will refract towards the normal. The light is passing from an optical less dense medium (Air) into a more dense medium (such as plastic or glass) at this boundary. Since the light rays are passing the boundary from a less dense medium in which light travels fast (optically
